    Shooting fish in a barrel. It’s sort of like Clinton and Obama supporters calling the Trump kids ugly - the left never looks at their own mud fences.

    I live in this economy. I know how it is by experience, and I'm not seeing any economic miracle. No one I know is. Trump's miracle is an artificially inflated stock market and increased deficit spending.

    Exactly.

    Trump and his rich buddies rape the system to line their pickets, and the average guy on Main Street gets an extra $20 a week in his paycheck.

    Trump 101.:smh:

    So you think only rich folks are making bank on the market, well that's just sad for you :) I have a friend that's up 400k since Trump took office! He took a buy out on his pension and invested it and is now sitting pretty.. Better luck next time man :(

    Those of us in business know that every good steward of his money uses every legal means to show loss in order to minimize taxes. The run of the mill wage earner does not understand that reality and that is what the left counts on. If Trump was a terrible business man, how has he managed to hang onto the wealth he has?

    Well played.

    I set the trends.

    I set the dialogue.

    I originate the phrases.

    Glad to see some of the RW following my lead.

    Oh, and on topic, Trump is a Tax Cheat and a Fraud.

    Carry on.:salute:

    There's a dig difference between following a lead and mocking self-imposed talking points.

    In fact, that leads pretty well into the OP, doesn't it? The Legacy Media sets the tone, and the result being many unfortunate unintelligent left-wing members following like Borg Drones.

    Don't be so gullible. Billionaires don't become billionaires by being honest. PODS trump probably used those losses as a clever way to offset his profits and to avoid paying taxes. If the crook paid $10 in actual taxes for those years it is a miracle.

    The relevant question is: How much did PODS trump actually pay in federal and state taxes for those years?

    So far no one is asking that question.

    Tax Loss Carryback and Carry Forward Explained
    "A tax loss isn't necessarily all bad news. If you have a tax loss in one year, you might be able to use that loss to offset profits either in past or future years, to minimize taxes for your business in those years. Business owners have several ways to minimize taxes--legally, of course."

    https://www.thebalancesmb.com/tax-loss-carryback-and-carry-forward-explained-398178

    The net operating loss carryback and carryforward
    Overview of the Net Operating Loss Carryback and Carryforward

    "When a business reports operating expenses on its tax return that exceed its revenues, a net operating loss (NOL) has been created. An NOL can be used in some other tax reporting period as an offset to taxable income, which reduces the tax liability of the reporting entity. The basic rules for using an NOL are:

    1. Carry the amount back to the preceding two tax years and apply it against any taxable income, which can generate an immediate tax rebate. You can waive this action and instead proceed directly to the next step; if so, attach a statement to your tax return in the year in which the NOL was generated, documenting the waiver.

    2. Carry the amount forward for the next 20 years and apply it against any taxable income, which reduces the amount of taxable income in those years.

    3. After 20 years, any remaining NOL is cancelled."

    PODS trump is probably still using that loss today to put money in his pocket.
